Ashes and Prayer
Burn oak to magic logs for graded ashes and offer them at an altar for Prayer XP.
Burning logs leaves ashes, and better logs leave better ashes. Use ashes on any prayer altar to offer them for Prayer XP. The top tier gives more Prayer XP than burying a dragon bone.
Ash tiers
| Ashes | Burn | Firemaking | Prayer XP each |
|---|---|---|---|
 Ashes |  Logs | 1 | 4 |
 Warm ashes |  Oak Logs | 15 | 8 |
 Bright ashes |  Willow Logs | 30 | 14 |
 Sacred ashes |  Maple Logs | 45 | 24 |
 Blessed ashes |  Yew Logs | 60 | 40 |
 Void ashes |  Magic Logs | 75 | 70 |
These are base amounts before your XP rate (XP rates and bonuses). For scale, burying 
Bones gives 3.75 and 
Dragon Bones give 60. You cannot offer noted ashes.
Getting ashes
- Fires. Use a
Tinderbox on logs, in your pack or on the ground, to light a fire. When it burns out, its ashes land on that tile, so walk back for them. Every Firemaking level above the log's level adds 1% to the chance of two ashes, up to 35%. - Furnaces. Use logs on a furnace instead and each log turns into its ashes in your pack. This gives half the usual Firemaking XP and never a second ash.
- Firemaking cape. Wearing the
Firemaking cape, you light every log first time. Each fire gives one more ash, and so does each furnace log while your pack has room. - Monsters. The Void Dungeon's creatures drop ash tiers, and so do lesser, forge, black and Void demons; Void demons drop Void ashes. Some of these drops come noted. Each ash's page lists every source.
- The Skilling Chest can give noted Void ashes. See Keys and chests.
Ashes in Alchemy
Ordinary Ashes also provide fire when binding pale ore at a safe circle that does not supply fire itself. Bring one ash per ore and Alchemy 15. The Crater circle supplies fire without ashes. Higher ash tiers do not replace ordinary ashes in this recipe. See Alchemy.
